TL;DR: The adverse long-term impact of the antibiotic tetracycline was quite variable for fermenting heterotrophic and methanogenic fractions of the microbial community based on changes inflicted on the composition of remaining/residual organic substrate.

TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a laboratory-scale two-phase anaerobic digestion system treating dairy wastewater was investigated using the pre-determined operating criteria for the acidification reactor, and the results, obtained from a 9-month operation, showed that overall, 90% COD and 95% BOD removal efficiencies at an organic loading rate (OLR) of 5 kilograms COD/m 3 ǫ and a hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 2 days were achieved.

TL;DR: The hybrid UASB reactor could be a suitable alternative for the treatment of chemical synthesis-based pharmaceutical wastewater and the maximum loading capacity achievable before reactor failure was determined.

TL;DR: Investigating the occurrence and variation in the ARGs found during the one-year operation of the anaerobic sequencing batch reactors used to treat pharmaceutical wastewater revealed that the effluent from the STE reactor had a higher number of ARGs than that from the ST reactor; this could be due to the synergistic effects of erythromycin.

TL;DR: The investigation revealed that acetogens have a competitive advantage over Archaea in the presence of ETS and ST combinations, and the ETS batch reactor performed better than the ST batch reactor.
